摘要
This study focuses on changing the surface properties of raw silk fibers to simplify the degumming process. Because the conventional degumming processes may be harmful for fibers, they must be applied moderately. Utilizing the novel techniques and technologies, researchers are trying to find alternative ways in order to achieve effective sericin removal without damaging the fibroin part of the silk. In this study, one of the novel technologies, low-pressure plasma technology was used to remove sericin layer by etching. Air, oxygen and water vapor plasmas were applied to raw silk fabrics under different time and power conditions. Weight loss, breaking strength, scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflectance were used to characterize the effects of plasma treatments. © 2020, Chamber of Textile Engineers.
